E-Skin Using Fringing Field Electrical Impedance Tomography with an Ionic Liquid Domain
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a promising technique for large area tactile sensing for robotic skin. This study presents a novel EIT-based force and touch sensor that features a latex membrane acting as soft skin and...

New evidence on mutual fund performance
We compare two bootstrap methods for assessing mutual fund performance. The first produces narrow confidence intervals due to pooling over time, while the second produces wider confidence intervals because it preserves the...

So gross and yet so far away
People morally evaluate norm violations that occur at various distances from the self (e.g., a corrupt politician vs. a cheating spouse). Yet, distance is rarely studied as a moderator of moral judgment processes. We focus on...
A comparison of performance of Islamic and conventional banks 2004 to 2009
We compare the efficiency of Islamic and conventional banks during the period 2004-2009 using data envelopment analysis (DEA) and meta-frontier analysis (MFA). The use of the non-parametric MFA allows for the decomposition of...

Aggregation in economies with search frictions
We derive an aggregation result in economies with indivisible labor supply choices and frictional labor markets, obtaining a tractable model of gross worker flows in aggregate labor markets with search frictions. Our result...

Boron-Doped Diamond Dual-Plate Microtrench Electrode for Generator-Collector Chloride/Chlorine Sensing
A novel generator-collector dual-plate boron-doped diamond microtrench sensor is fabricated and its operation demonstrated for chloride/chlorine detection in the harsh anodic potential range. Detection is made sensitive by...
Breathing oscillations of a trapped impurity in a Bose gas
Motivated by a recent experiment [J. Catani et al., arXiv:1106.0828v1 preprint, 2011], we study breathing oscillations in the width of a harmonically trapped impurity interacting with a separately trapped Bose gas. We provide an...

Background Reality television shows are popular with children and young adults; inclusion of tobacco imagery in these programmes is likely to cause smoking in these groups. Series 3 of the UK reality show Love Island...
Consensus time and conformity in the adaptive voter model
The adaptive voter model is a paradigmatic model in the study of opinion formation. Here we propose an extension for this model, in which conflicts are resolved by obtaining another opinion, and analytically study the time...
Racking performance of timber studwork and hemp-lime walling
Hemp-lime is a natural, sustainable low carbon insulating material. It is formed from three main constituents: hemp shiv; lime based binder; and, water. Its use within the construction industry is a relatively recent...

This commentary complements the article by De Dreu and Gross (2019) from the perspectives of behavioral economics and game theory. It aims to provide a bridge between the psychology / neuroscience research with that of economic...
Is There Really Granger Causality Between Energy Use and Output?
We carry out a meta-analysis of the very large literature on testing for Granger causality between energy use and economic output to determine if there is a genuine effect in this literature or whether the large number of...
